For you Siberia82: Som att sätta de hoppen som är med i programmet = such as nailing the jumps which are included in the program

The Sasha interview, something like this:

Speaker: He is 19 years old and one of the top figure skaters in Sweden. Today he and 5 other figure skaters from Luleå travel down to Malmö to participate in the Swedish championships. If he ends up first or second he will probably get the tickets to Europeans and Worlds. And he says he is a better skater now and has a good chance to beat his 2 main competitors from Göteborg.

Sasha: As I have skated a lot this season I have developed a new style, broader, I can't explain how to someone who doesn't know figure skating, but a person with knowledge to figure skating knows what I mean. I don't rush on the ice, tries to stretch, well, I don't know, just trying to skate elegantly.

Speaker: You seem calm, it is a big competition though?

SM is not such a big competition for me. My goals are Europeans and Worlds, that's big. SM is like a normal Swedish competition. Not many in the audience. The results mean a lot, but it's not a big competition so to speak.

Speaker: So let's hope you win the ticket then.

Sasha: Yes, I have to.

Surprised Siberia82 that you could watch this in Canada!

*****

Sadly I can't watch the seniors short programs tonight(having uninterested guests) Maybe I can sneak in on the 3 top guys.

Predictions: 1 Adrian 2 Sasha 3 Kristoffer

I guess Viktoria will win the ladies. She has been a bit inconsistent in SP lately, but enough of that now. I hope she does her 3-3 and nails all her 5 triples in LP. Anyway, a close competition for gold between the Helgesson sisters.
